So it was announced in the Army Times today that women have been invited to try out Ranger School. I think it will be interesting to see how this will turn out. As many people know Ranger School is one of the toughest schools in the military which leaves quite a few questions for this new development. How may women will come out for this and will they be successful? What are your thoughts?
